[Q] Huawei U8510 stuck at first boot - Bricked?

Help.
I completely screwed up but do not know where.
Had problems rooting but eventually made it with 'Automatic-Root-Enabler--U8510--v1.1' which worked first time.
Then used rom manager to install HuaweiU8510.zip which did not work so tried U8500_Huaweid.zip.
cache and Delvic cleared, rebooted and red huawei came on screen and there it stayed.
Removed battery, boot into recovery went into firmware update(image in dload but cant remember name) starts step 1 unpacking get yellow triangle with ! and says update failed. also tried again with zip files on sd card but back to red Huawei
Any one got any ideas please as I can get to the sd card but not to the internal memory and not adb/fastboot. So no way of getting a new recovery image into dload

Here in the netherlands there are no huawei phones too bad because on the wmc they announced some pretty good phones ..
But on topic...
Does your phone still start normal?
If not try flashing it back to stock firmware..
Maybe it's a problem with the custom rom...

Thanks
1. no
2. trying once I get original rom
3. Funny it is every one I tried
Keith

I do own a galaxy s...
Once i had a similar problem...
It was caused by the filesystem
Samsung uses the rfs system but custom roms prefer ext4 which is better...
When your filesystem isn't compatible with your custom rom than you will have a startup problem so try to figure out if you have to change the filesystem.
can't post links from other sites cause i am a newby to xda forums this is really annoying

I'm stuck

Hi guys,
for some reason after I did update to KangVIP I can't get rid off it. Besides I got no wifi and bt and I was going to start over with b023 as suggested but at this point I wont bother anymore.
I did wipe the system, I did advanced wipe using twrp but no matter what I do none of the stock firmwares are going through however the Kanga one always goes through.(KangaVIP goes through only in TWRP)
twrp 2.8.7.0
wipe
advanced wipe
I select all the partitions
mkdosfs process ended with error=1
unable to wipe /usb
unknown mtp message type: 1
unable to wipe /usb
I go back, restart to fastboot, (device is saying there is no OS installed), I restore the recovery, create dload folder on my sdcard, put there 028 (actually I tried all of them already), volume+ volume - power and I get error.
What am I missing ?
Anyone can help ?
Thanks in advance.

First you did a OTA from B029 to B209?
If so you are now on a Android 6 ROM you cant go back to Android 5 without a Rollback from Huawei.

Yes I did then I wiped everything and started with b028 again.
Same thing, wifi didn't work same with BT.
Wipe again and this time I did local update and since the local update I can't go back not even b029.

Right now you are on a Android 5 or Android 6 ROM?
If you on a Android 5 ROM you can force update a Complete ROM to install a clean system and try if everything works.

I'm stuck on 6.0
I know I can do force update on 5.0 I said it above I just can't do it with 6.0 -> b029, only with your rom.

Anyone else is having this issue ?
The Kanga rom got a quite few problems no wifi and not BT, Google play services crashing (this can be fixed with gapps) my co worker just tried it with his own methods and same issue. After I went through the whole Kanga thread 60% of the posters got problems most of them are ignored.

I don't have any problems but I think the people with problems are people who have a DAV 701L.

I got DAV-703L, just simple question, why is the wifi and bt not working ?
When I get into Kanga I can remove the root or deny access to it is there a way to ditch it ?
Yeah I know it's working for you and it's not working for 10 other people including 703L owners. There is something wrong with the rom no doubt about it.

I think there was an error while flashing and without a full clean Rom flash i can't see a solution.
Before I got it to work I flashed it more than 3 times and everytime everything worked so I think don't think the ROM is that bugged.

The first rom you introduced is working "fine" I get the wifi and bt no problem but once I switch into the latest build it's gone.
Any idea where can I get full clean Rom ?
This one is a no go http://www.needrom.com/download/p8max-dav-703l/

I managed to rollback to 5.1.1 but when I try to force flash it, it says it's not compatible.

If you don't update properly to B209, when you flash any B209 rom you are going to run into issues such as the wireless Bluetooth and sim card switching for some. If you properly updated the dload method should have completed successfully. Look at the kernel and radio version of B209 in About phone and compare it to others and see if they match.

I don't want to use your rom even if you removed the Chinese it's still inside the system. Boot load times take much longer. Unexpected crashes. I did try it on 4 phones with OTA and local updates 2 are working but the Kang does crash twice a day minimum.
All what I'm asking is how to restore it to it's original settings, this was my worst mistake ever.
What I'm trying to say if I do something I do it properly just look at your thread 85% failure ratio that doesn't look like it was done properly does it ?

Really dude?? No worries, it will be the last time I do anything for the P8Max. Maybe you should just sell the phone since you're having all sorts of issues with it....or maybe you should have left it totally stock then. Or maybe read through the Mediapad X2 forums because the two phones are very similar.

oppo f1 won't boot

Hi!
My cellphone is Oppo F1f. I downloaded the marshmallow os for oppo last week from the project spectrum and installed it. It was a success except that when I tried to reboot my phone, it always says that the applications are optimizing. This optimizing process continued many time and did not stop so I downloaded the ColorOS. My internet went wrong as I was downloading it and the download did not complete so maybe the file is corrupted but I still installed it in my phone hoping that it will go back to coloros. But unfortunately, my phone got stock in the "updating installation". I can't go to the stock recovery as well. Do you have any suggestions or recommendations on how to solve this problem? Thank you very much.

Follow instuctions on this thread.

hi did you find a solution regarding the problem on stucked at updating process?

Bootloop after installing Xposed on Oreo, Bit of help would be appreciated.

After searching around and not being 100% sure on how I should go about fixing this particular bootloop I decided to post a thread. Bootloader unlocked, phone unlocked, FRP unlocked, and TWRP installed. Can't seem to get the phone recognized when plugged in no matter where I'm at and hisuite recovery doesn't work, nor does the erecovery or whatever it's called. I had the phone running just fine with supersu but after installing my usual Xposed/Busybox and rebooting I got caught in a bootloop. (might have been caused by being on Oreo and having some problems with a version made for Nougat or something). I've seen there are various ways to exit the loop and at this point I'd be open to any but I do notice some posts saying they almost bricked their phone while doing so. Currently on my microSD I've got a hwota update I was going to try to use. I've got no backups in TWRP either because I'm irresponsible (my fault). What can I do to just wipe the phone, reinstall any version of android and get back to where I was at. I'm a little new to this as I've only ever rooted my tablet. Thanks for the help and all the info I've taken from this forum before and hopefully now. Forgot to mention I don't know my full device number only MHA-L29 in the US.

Ok Well after laying in bed and thinking about it I wound up running HWOTA8 from TWRP since I could access that. Seemed to just bring me back to eRecovery, and I factory reset my phone. I'll reinstall TWRP and flash supersu then make a backup and try again. Not sure what happened but I seemed to be in a pretty good spot since I could access TWRP even though my phone wouldn't show up on my computer while in fastboot/Recovery mode.
edit: oh I got a new problem now. I'm on testkeys firmware, camera, sim, and bluetooth work but I can't update from 7 back to 8. I'll do more testing around before bothering to unlock bootloader or install TWRP.
I've been trying to follow the guide in this thread but to no avail. I just get software install failed and then I have to start again.

Well another day of searching google and XDA trying to figure out guides and I don't think I'm any closer to a solution to getting off test-keys. Some seem to suggest that you need to go back to MM, some suggest running HWOTA, some suggest the three button recovery and others say that won't work at all. I'm not sure I've ever felt this confused haha. I'll keep at it but there has to be some way to get to a build that has the updater on it since that's all I seem to be lacking to get off test-keys. I can even search the settings for the updater but when you press it nothing happens. It's like they completely removed any sort of updating this build can do.

What is your full build number? Please, post screenshot.

Model: MHA-L29
Build: NRD90M test-keys
EMUI version: 5.0.1
Android version: 7.0
I believe I was originally on some variant of MHA-L29C567 since I'm US based and its the dual sim version
I've tried using HWOTA a few times to either upgrade/update or rebrand and no matter what I choose when my phone restarts to install I just get software install failed. Usually I'll have to run through first time setup again. I've read that some people said this particular issue had to do with the update zips but mine seem to be named correctly so all I can think of doing is getting another firmware and trying again with that.

haha okay so I found out I was putting the update zips in the wrong folder. I fixed that and re ran HWOTA. update started/finished and my phone started booting and restarting a lot then went into erecovery. I'm downloading the update package right now and it's slow as hell but it's moving. And that failed leaving me to boot a few times and then get back to erecovery. I'll try getting into fastboot or recovery.
Edit: Well that seems to have resolved itself now. After having the erecovery fail I wiped/factory reset and booted the phone into oreo 8.0.0.321 with all the apps and updater. Thanks to everyone who dropped in and I'll be getting emails if someone replies that needs help too. I'm not very knowledgeable but I can give it a shot.

Well, I f**ked up.

Alright, here goes.
So one day I was interested in flashing a new custom ROM (Preferably LineageOS) to my Huawei Mate 10 Lite. Long story short, it's now soft bricked. Only TWRP is working.
But, that's not enough information. Here's the fully story.
After realizing I could not get the Bootloader unlock code using the official method, I've tried DCUnlocker. I paid, and got my code.
I've installed HiSuite, 274829 drivers and finally unlocked the Bootloader. Now, the phone said "This device is unlocked and can't be trusted", but it booted fine. YES!
After that, I downloaded LineageOS 15.1 and flashed it. Before flashing it, I formatted everything, wiped cashe, davlick ect... And.. made my biggest mistake.
Not making a nandroid backup (dammit).
Don't ask me why, I thought it would go well (ugh).
Anyways, I flashed it, error 7. Alright, removed the assert lines. Flashed it again, and it worked, but right at the end, another error? It was error 7, again, but a little different.
This time, it said "failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/vendor at /vendor: device or resource busy"
Okay, now I'm starting to get worried. Like, REALLY WORRIED.
It also said it failed to execute a line in the updater script, one of the last lines. But I would not delete it, just in case.
When I tried to boot, nothing. Went back to Google.
At this point, I learned that any Treble ROM will NOT work with Android version of 7.1. shhhiiii
I was on EMUI 5.1 aka 7.0, and this was worrying. At this point, I tried to return to EMUI 5.1, but since there was no backup, well...... To Google we go!
I did not find any stock room that running EMUI 5.1, but only found EMUI 8.0. I did find a stock room on 7.1, but I'm not paying 15 dollars for it. Not about that life.
I tried the dload method, but apparently my sdcard is on FAT32, and because of that I cannot upload the UPDATE.APP to it.
I've also tried eRecovery, but to no avail. "Failed to get package".
So now I'm stuck on a couple of options, and I need help from you, the XDA community.
1) Remove the line that's causing the issue but at the cost of it maybe not working
2) Somehow format the sdcard and somehow upload the update.app to it
3) Somehow update Android's system to Project Treble, although not sure it's possible since there is no OS.
4) ?????????????????
Please, help me. I'm in hell right now.
